Well last Sepia - Saturday's photo was on the serious side and not to be out done by Kat, I have a donkey entry. I thought I would hit you all with a crazy one this time.
I found this in a bunch of emails my brother-in-law forwards over to me. It was part of a power point slide presentation. I have no clue what that presentation was for but it has some very erie music played on a tin whistle, and begins with a photo of the Russian Army, the last Zsar of Russia, his wife, and son. There must be 50 old photos in the presentation so you all are in for some more from that collection. The photos are from around the early 1900's to the 1940's.
This photo looks like it is a soldier walking through a field. It seems there are two other soldiers in the background, one with a gun. But why is this soldier carrying this donkey? Shouldn't it be the other way around? At the very least that donkey should be carrying some of those soldiers supplies.
Well, one thing is for sure, donke…

This week's Sepia Saturday prompt reminded me of one of our posts from three years ago. It's not a photo of a man riding a horse but one of a donkey riding a man. It's a hilarious sight indeed.

February 28, 2016 is the 60th anniversary of a major train wreck in Swampscott, Massachusetts. Thirteen people were killed as a result of this crash. It happened on the same train line that I take quite frequently to Boston. I have a couple of photos posted here of the wreck but it is explained in full detail in the YouTube video below. Have a look.

I don't know why this video starts 9 minutes in but you can rewind back to learn a bit more about the Buddliners that were used by the B&M Railroad.
